Boys’ volleyball

Holyoke 3, Athol 1 — Four very even sets left little separation between teams on Thursday afternoon.

Host Athol High School shook off an 0-2 deficit to prolong the match, but Holyoke High School held on tight for a 25-23, 26-24, 23-25, 25-21 independent volleyball victory at Mallett Gymnasium.

“The team struggled to find an offensive rhythm and didn’t put enough pressure on Holyoke, leading to offensive opportunities for Holyoke,” offered Athol coach Sean MacDonald.

Freshman setter Colby Soltysik had a huge outing for the Red Raiders (5-4) in defeat. He registered 32 assists to set the table for the Athol offense while adding four service aces and 13 digs.

Baseball

Greenfield 2, Hampshire 0 — Two sophomores and a freshman combined on a five-hit shutout, Greenfield’s second shutout in as many days, a 2-0 independent baseball win over Hampshire Regional High School Thursday afternoon in Westhampton.

Freshman Joel Peabody earned his first career start and walked three in 1⅓ innings before giving way to sophomore Owen Phelps, who worked through the fifth inning and kept the game scoreless, registering one strikeout and one walk, and earning the win. Sophomore Nate Haselton came on and pitched the final two innings, striking out one and walking one.

“I think Joel was nervous, which led to the walks, but our pitchers are throwing strikes for the most part right now,” Green Wave coach Tom Suchanek said. “We are not going to strike too many people out. We told the kids that they’ve got to pitch to contact and we need to make plays. We made the plays today.”

The win completed a perfect week for the Green Wave (4-1), which won all three games it played in a four-day span. Greenfield started the week with a 8-5 win over Southwick-Tolland Regional School, and earned a 7-0 win over Athol High School on Wednesday before completing it with the victory over Hampshire.

“We hit the ball hard today and could have easily scored more runs, but they turned three double plays,” Suchanek said. “Right now, we are hitting the ball and hopefully that will continue.”

Greenfield got on the board in the third inning and scored again in the fourth. Tyler Boissonneault had two hits and one stolen base, while Tyler Townsley had a hit and an RBI. Zack Avery added a double, while Arlo Larange, Colin Cloutier and Adam Phelps each had one hit.

Noah Bachelder struck out two and did not walk a batter in seven innings in the loss.

Mohawk 11, Smith Voke 5 — A seven-run top of the fourth inning propelled visiting Mohawk Trail Regional High School to a comfortable 11-5 win over Smith Vocational & Agricultural High School in an independent baseball game in Northfield on Thursday afternoon.

Trailing 2-0, Mohawk (4-2) pushed seven runs across in the fourth inning to take control of the game. The Warriors tacked on two runs in each of the fifth and sixth frames.

Mohawk pounded out 12 hits and took advantage of nine walks issued by Smith Voke (2-2) pitching. Daniel Szafran, Luke Viens, Torsten Sloan-Anderson, Ian Eckler and Wyatt Bandy-Page had two hits a piece in the win, with Szafran and Chris Graves driving in a pair of runs.

Two pitchers combined to hold Smith Voke to just five hits in the win. Senior Bruin Pratt earned the win, as he started and tossed four innings, striking out four and walking three. Sophomore Jordan Grenier came on in relief to nail down the save, as he went three innings while allowing just one hit. He struck out three and walked two.

Mohawk travels to Turners Falls High School for a Hampshire League crossover game on Monday.

Mahar 3, Quabbin 2 — Sam Paul had a solid performance on the mound and the Mahar Regional School offense did just enough en route to a 3-2 win over Quabbin Regional High School Thursday afternoon in Orange.

Paul struck out two and walked three in the game and worked into the seventh inning, where he took a 3-1 lead before giving way to Jake Berry, who recorded the final two outs to earn the save.

“Sam pitched very well, he commanded the strike zone,” Mahar coach Art Billings said. “I was very happy with his performance.”

Mahar (2-3) took a 1-0 lead in the first inning as Zack Geyster singled, stole second and scored on a Miller Richardson single. Quabbin tied the score in the second on Travis Lanpher’s RBI double, but Mahar came back in the third to reclaim the lead for good as Richardson walked and scored on a groundout by Zach Duguay. Mahar added another run in the fifth inning when Richardson struck out but reached on a passed ball, and later scored on Gabe O’Lari’s bunt single. Quabbin got one back in the seventh before Berry slammed the door shut in relief.
